   Implications for Terrestrial Chronometry
   The gravitational effect on Earth is measurable. Clocks placed at sea level run detectably slower than identical clocks placed atop tall mountains, such as those on Mount Everest or the K2 peak. This effect has been precisely mapped by the Global Positional System (GPS)/) network. Furthermore, laboratory studies have shown that clocks positioned closer to ferromagnetic deposits exhi…
